Has the institution implemented technologies or strategies to reduce the environmental impacts of snow and ice removal?:
Yes

A brief description of the snow and ice removal program, policy, or practice:

We are using Magnesium Chloride, the most environmentally friendly product with a low melting point, to provide safe walkways on campus. This formula is the least detrimental to turf and entrances into buildings. Roadways are treated with a Sand/Salt ratio 3:1, so traction is achieved and little salt damage occurs to the adjacent turf areas.
